A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for the destruction of the Democratic Party
A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for:

permanent Dem minority status in Congress

a shrinking Democratic base

whitewash of Bush's crimes

further partisanship and gridlock in Washington

a newly energized Republican party

the disillusionment of millions of potential young voters

the affirmation of Karl Rove politics

the perpetuation of the Bush-Clinton oligarchy we've seen the past 27 years

the modern destruction of the Democratic Party


That is all.

9. Nope. This is serious stuff. I support my party more than Hillary Clinton.
Wish Hillary Clinton felt the same way.

40. I think Senator Clinton should be forced to resign her senate seat.
She obviously is too polarizing a figure. She should even be ordered to leave the country.

How dare she get the nerve to try to take away power from the annointed one?

13. No one who was annoyed at Joe Lieberman for endorsing John McCain can still support Clinton...
after SHE effectively endorsed John McCain.

Moreover, the latest polls show that more people trust McCain to handle a "3:00 AM" phone call than they trust Hillary Clinton. This is the case in spite of the fact that several former top military brass have said that they don't trust McCain since he has problems controlling his temper.

Clinton seems more determined to destroy Obama's candidacy than she is in having a Democrat beat McCain in the general election in November.

She is either insane or her goal is to have McCain win in 2008 if Obama wins the nomination, so that she can run again in 2012. Either way, she WILL destroy the Democratic party. If she is the nominee, she will bring out so many people who dislike the Clintons, that the Democratic party will lose Congressional seats as well as the presidency. If Obama is the nominee and loses to McCain, Clinton will be rightly blamed, and it will split the party.

Clinton's display of party disloyalty will not be lost on voters, should she somehow become the nominee. If she can't be trusted to support her own party, how can the people trust her to run the country. Hillary Clinton is telling the country that her personal ambition takes precedence over party and country. This is not good for the party or the country.

14. Clinton was already
a candidate first. Obama, the upstart comes in the race, then Clinton is supposed to drop out??? No chance. Obama is not ready to be a senator, let alone president.

43. Calling Obama "the anointed one" is really rich.
It's projection from the Hillary camp, again. She was the presumed nominee for over a year. She was the anointed one. Obama came as a big surprise.

42. Careful, now.
He's more experienced than Bush was in 2000. He's older and has about as much experience as JFK did when he was elected.

That argument is, truly, indefensible and counterproductive.

26. This post is typical of the type of campaign Obama has been running
He runs a campaign of fear and racism of both Bill and Hillary. That said, half the voters are not buying it as we can see by the popular vote.

36. I wouldn't hold on to that point too tightly...
FL and MI will revote (it will happen) and PA has yet to be heard. He will have the delegate lead going into the convention, but its not a certainty he'll have the popular vote.

27. Time for some Dems to deal with their sexism
She is the most qualified candidate who has the greatest chance of winning the GE.

She's a woman.

Get over it, or watch the party grow weaker in years to come as it loses women voters.

If we don't vote for Hillary you're going to throw a fit and never speak to us again? Way to make the case for womens role in politics.

28. The Democratic Party is already broken.
I don't see a choice on my ballot this time around that repairs or restores party integrity.

39. Of course not. I've certainly never said anything like that, either.
Since you asked. I'd hate for you to make any illogical broad-brush assumptions.
